IWeb Creating Thin Lines

Hello. I want to make a box with a thin (0.25 pt) outline. I understand that I can choose 0.25pt in the inspector box, but when I publish it, the line is the same thickness as 1pt in a browser. Is it possible to create thinner lines than 1pt?

The minimum height/width/thickness of a line in a webpage is 1 pixel.

Is there a way to create a heading with shading behind the text and thin lines above and below?

I'm working with InDesign CS6, Windows 7.
Is there a way, using paragraph rules, to create a heading with shading behind the text and thin lines above and below the text?
I'd like to create headings that look like these:
Thank you!

I have a document where I almost do such, but without the fill. I use a Head Style which Spans Columns for this instance; it allows the haeds to flow and fill the width.
Paragraph Rules above and below are turned on with plenty of offset.
I tweaked my setting to accomodate your need - It required only one instance, not above and below, and changing the stroke to a double stroke.
It may be necessary to create a custom stroke to modify the proportion of stroke vs fill. There is a difference of thin-thin and thick-thick, neither of which seemed perfect but might be dependent on the Character height.
Creating custom strokes is accomplished via the Strokes Panel.

Urgent Deadline to Fix PC Mess Displaying iWeb Created Site -- Please Help!

IWeb 08 and web-design-savvy Mac users, I really need your help... and I'm on a tight deadline.
I've designed the website promoting our group's big event by using iWeb 08; I was very troubled when I discovered tonight that there are major display problems in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 on Windows PCs. This website is essential to promoting the event and I can't afford to lose traffic because of display issues.
Here's the site.
www.spj.org/pittsburgh
Can anyone walk me through the best fixes for the following problems?
On a PC in Internet Explorer:
1) The home page display chokes up during scrolling; there's a sort of "stuttering" effect in rendering of simple images that slows down the PC and gums things up.
2) The layout of the center-justified text is trashed by Explorer's insertion of large blocks of blank spaces and a line return in an area where I change the color of the text for emphasis.
On my web pages that display the iWeb-generated navigation links:
3) The label for the final navigation link drops down to a second row, creating a ragged, poorly formatted look.
4) If you click on the navigation link for the current page, it takes you to the home page instead of keeping you on the current page.
None of these problems happen in Safari for Windows.
In Firefox for Windows, I believe that only problem 3 happens.
Explorer 7 for Windows appears to fix only problem 2.
-Will an "optimizer" program fix any or all of these problems?
-Can I open the iWeb-created html files in Netscape Composer, SeaMonkey, TextEdit, or any other application, change the html code to fix any of this, and save the repaired result?
-Is there any change in the formating within iWeb that I should try that will put things right on a PC?
Thanks for any help you can offer. I have to fix this somehow this weekend.

Cédric,
Thank you. I will definitely build my own navigation menu, as you described to solve problems 3 and 4.
I'm still struggling with the decision of how to deal with issues 1 and 2 On a PC in Internet Explorer. (See below.)
I did already update to iWeb 2.0.3 before I created the site.
1) The home page display chokes up during scrolling; there's a sort of "stuttering" effect in rendering of simple images that slows down the PC and gums things up.
2) The layout of the center-justified text is trashed by Explorer's insertion of large blocks of blank spaces and a line return in an area where I change the color of the text for emphasis.
Here are options I'm considering.
One is to take screenshots of the site's current iWeb-generated graphics, turn them into jpegs, and reinsert them into the page as jpegs. My thinking is that it would eliminate any Explorer problems with rendering png images and effects.
Another option is to rebuild the entire site in another program, trying to imitate the look of my current iWeb-created site. The problem is, I don't know if I have to skills to properly create my PayPal online registration section, which is essential. If I do try to redo the entire site, I haven't decided to use Netscape Composer (my old method), SeaMonkey (its successor), or some other application with which I have no experience. If I do recreate the entire site, I'm going to have to be careful to exactly duplicate the individual page names, so that I don't break the links for anyone who has linked to the current pages.

Whats the easiest way to put a thin line around an image?

Can anyone tell me the easiest way to put a thin line around
an image? I'm also interested in the use of thin lines as part of
the graphic design on a page, how are they generated?

Way too complicated. If you want to change the color or style
of the
border, you have to modify the image. With CSS you can
directly change
the line style in a much easier and faster way.

Drawing and some layout help for a simple control: thin lines and application start

I am trying to create a new, simple control. The control should act as a grouping marker much like that found in the Mathematica notebook interface. It is designed to sit to the right of a node and draw a simple bracket. The look of the bracket changes depending on whether the node is logically marked open or closed.
After looking at some blogs and searching, I tried setting the snapToPixels to true in the container holding the marker control as well as the strokewidth but I am still finding that the bracket line is too thick. I am trying to draw a thin line. Also, I am unable to get the layout to work when the test application is first opened. One of the outer brackets is cut-off. I hardcoded some numbers into the skin just to get something to work.
Is there a better way to implement this control?
How can I get the fine line drawn as well as the layout correct at application start?

The test interfaces are already defined for you - the 3rd party session bean remote/local interfaces.
It is pretty trivial to create implementations of those interfaces to return the test data from your XML files.
There are a number of ways to handle the switching, if you have used the service locator pattern, then I would personally slot the logic in to the service locator, to either look up the 3rd party bean or return a POJO test implementation of the interface according to configuration.
Without the service locator, you are forced to do a little more work, you will have to implement your own test session beans to the same interfaces as the 3rd party session beans.
You can then either deploy them instead of the 3rd party beans or you can deploy both the test and the 3rd party beans under different JNDI names,and use ejb-ref tags and allow you to switch between test and real versions by changing the ejb-link value.
Hope this helps.

Thin lines in pdf file

Hi all!
I have a question. The same problem in Illustrator CS6 (but it appears from a few version of CS back).
I have document in an Illustrator. The document is generally for print, I don't using them to making website, so without using Slice tool.
I need have separation pdf so first I print the document to postrscript usind pdf ppd. Always the same settings:
1. General - only media size
2. Marks and Bleed - none (i mean all off)
3. Output - mode: Separations (host-based), and rest like is: emulsion: Up, Image: Positive, Printer Resolution: 71lpi/600dpi
4. Graphic - none
5. Color Managment - none
6. Advanced - none
7. Summary - none
After printing I have a separation, pdf file. Always appears vertical and horizontal thin white lines, like document was preparing for website and sliced.
Why this happend? Can I use some settings to avoid this situation? I tried a various setting but the lines always appears.. Help!

It always was in a bitmap.

How can I make a brush that starts and ends in a thin line?

I am looking to make a brush that I can use for cartooning in CS6 that starts out thin, gets thicker with pressure (I have a cintiq), and ends in a thin line. Does anyone have the expertise to make one?
Thank you.

I watched the first half of the tutorial from your link and some parts of the rest. It is a good tutorial. He is using an art brush which profile was created from an elliptical shape with sharp corners which gives that ink kind of appearance which is good for this kind of style. Most of the time though I prefer the appearance of the rounded ends of the calligraphic brushes. Also one advantage of the calligraphic brushes is that it can change its size or the size of the selected strokes with the [ and ] keys on the keyboard while with the art brushes this is done by changing the stroke weight which also can change the weight of calligraphic brushes in addition to the [ and ] keys.
Like in the tutorial I often use a similar workflow ending up with the brush strokes converted to filled paths but I simply use expand appearance then remove the unwanted parts with the Eraser brush which can be made pressure sensitive in the options that you get when double clicking the Eraser tool. This is less precise than the technique the guy is using in the video tutorial but it is quick, I like the hand touch appearance of the imperfections, and it also allows me to paint the white (transparent) highlights like for example the highlights on the booths of my cowboy. The Blob brush is the tool above the Eraser in the Tool panel and works basically the same like the Eraser but it adds to the fill of a path and it also has these and more options when you double click it. I use it most of the time in a combination with the Eraser to add or remove final details of illustrations started initially with brush strokes and then expanded. And like in the video tutorial I also like to keep a copy with the stage before expanding the brush strokes in case I need some changes on brush stroke level.
I also use a different technique for adding new color fills on the illustrations instead of cutting paths with the knife. I don't like the knife because I often do not like the first cut which I may realize later when undo is not the best workflow. What I do is copy paste in front the path and use the pencil tool set to edit the selected paths and change the shape of the selected path similar to using the knife but the pencil has to start and end on the path. The advantage of this for me is that the new fill with the different color is overlapping the original fill behind and when later I decide to change its shape I don't get gaps between the two colors which is what will happen if the knife was used.

Office PDF Print and office PDF creator(adobe plugin) create different line thickness result

Hi together,
Office PDF Print and office abobe PDF creator(adobe plugin) create different result. It seems that Adobe PDf creater improves line thickness to 1pt instead of 0,3pt. Is there a setting to change to original 0,3 because this 0,3 are standard line thickness for our documents. with adobe V9 the line was 0,3pt. (we need thin, mid and thick lines)
After 2 day's google searching this is the last change for hope :-)

Hi Bill,
Thanks a lot for the fast reply, i have tested it with 300dpi but I didn't get a different result. The bad thing is that not all lines getting thicker. if there is no arrow or ball at the end of the line the line thickness will not change (see Pic). I think this is a Acrobat error, i don't think that this will improve the pdf quality if the progam changes only some lanes and not all to 1pt.
I Think we must downgrade to version 9.

Illustrator CS5 random thin lines in shape of a circle with an off-centred middle

Hi there!
I need to create random thin lines in shape of a circle (similar to a dandelion), but with an off-centred middle.
I hope this makes sense...
Here is a quick scribble of what I need:
I just can't figure it out, does anybody have any ideas?
Cheers,
Maria

wouldn't be a bad idea to use the flare tool:
you can only have 50 lines though. needs some expanding/ungrouping, and delete the extra circles.

Thin lines on PDFx1a have printed on final job!!!

We recently produced a final print PDF for the front cover of magazine and all was well. No Lines as normal.
However, when this same PDF of cover was placed back into Indesign as part of a promotional poster, the final PDF appeared have some thin lines in 3 places. They were visible when PDF was viewed at 800% and above, and we initially thought that they were part of the 'Atomic Regions' set out by the flattening process. Anyway, these lines have printed and now we are wondering how to avoid this in future
As I say it only appears to happen when placing the Cover version of PDF back into Indesign file and a new PDF is created.
Does anyone know how to get round this without rasterizing PDF and changing to a bitmapped image. After all we want to keep all vector items as original cover, as poster is quite large.
I look forward to a reply
Many thanks,
Scratchy Head Man

Take it to an Apple Store or other service provider for testing.

URL iView with KM Content not shown in Page - just a "thin line"

Hi,
I just created two URL-iViews which point to documents in the Knowledge Management Repository.
Content Admin --> Preview --> Works out --> Hooray!
I created two pages for the corresponding iView and deltalinked the iViews in. At this point I want to add I'm not doing this the first time, I have a few dozen KM-Pages here and they all work and are all set up with the exact same properties.
Content Admin --> Preview --> and THIS is what happens:
http://www10.pic-upload.de/20.02.12/xiswewmyirk.jpg
There's just some kind of thin line showing. I cleared the portal cache and looked for anything unusual in the NWA monitoring traces, but didn't find anything. I didn't find anything related on the forums either, probably because I don't really know what search terms to use for this strange occurence...
Does anyone have a hinch what could be the cause for this paranormal activity?...
Cheers, Lukas

Yes. You are correct. Shame on me..
The pages were configured correctly at FULL but one particular iView was set to AUTOMATIC so although the page was set to full display, the iview in behind was defaulting to automatic, thus this strange behaviour.
Thanks Meera!
Cheers, Lukas

Configuring the browser window title for an iWeb-created page?

Hello all,
How do you customize the text that appears in the browser window's title for an iWeb-created page? (e.g., at the top of the browser window where it says "Apple - Support - Discussions - etc."). I had assumed that the the name I designated for the page via the Inspector would be used as the browser window title, but instead iWeb is using the first line of text within the page itself.
Thanks!

You can do it with a HTML snippet with the following code:
<script type='text/javascript'>
parent.document.title = "name you want to appear at the top of the window";
</script>
It takes about a second or two to replace the original text as can be seen in this test page.
Put the snippet box off somewhere where it won't overlap on any other element. It is invisible on the web page and in iWeb until you click on it. I had to do a Select All to find it just now to get the code.

go to tcode OLME> schedule agreement> select the line of document type LP and then slecte the folled item category and then selce each item category one by one and then click on the second folders link document type and there give source document type NB

CRXI Export to text - suppressed section creates blank lines

I'm using CRXI Proffesional - full version 11.5.11.1470
I have a report that uses the typical "stealth" subreport to obtain and pass info to the container, but remains invisible in preview mode. The fields in the subreport are all suppressed, the sections in the subreport are suppressed if blank and the subreport itself is suppressed when blank, the section that contains the subreport is also suppressed if blank.
This has always worked fine to get info into the container from the subreport while not creating any "white space" on the report.
Print preview and export to pdf both function just fine, omitting the blank lines.
It seems that exporting this to a text file is now creating blank lines for each occurence of the subreport.
I have seen this problem in a couple of forums but have not seen a resolution yet.
Does anybody have any idea how I can stop the exporting of suppressed blank sections ?

Good morning.
We've got something to get straight first
When you say "...from the Report Viewer. The report printed as expected on HP printer...", do you mean the viewer of the .NET app, or the viewer of the CR designer?
And version 12.0.0.683, is very old (well as far as CR is concerned anyhow ). That version is SP 1, we are now on SP 2. So that will be the place to start. Get to SP 2 which can be downloaded from here;
